Answer:

The required return on equity is 17%.

Explanation:

The required rate of return is the minimum return required by the investors to invest in a stock. The required rate of return is calculated under the CAPM approach based on the the stock's beta, the risk free rate and the market risk premium. The formula for the required rate of return is,

r = rRF + beta * rpM

r = 0.05 + 1.5 * 0.08

r = 0.17 or 17%

Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

cash                   96,535 debit

discount on BP    3,465 debit

          Bonds Payable          100,000 credit

Explanation:

We need to determinate the price at which the bonds were issued:

Which is the present value of the coupon payment and maturity

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\  

Coupon payment: 100,000 x 10% / 2 = 5,000

time 4  (2 years x 2 payment per year)

rate 0.06  (12% annual / 2 = 6% semiannual)

5000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.06)^{-4} }{0.06} = PV\\  

PV $17,325.5281  

 

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity (face value)   $100,000.00  

time   4.00  

rate  0.06

\frac{100000}{(1 + 0.06)^{4} } = PV  

PV   79,209.37  

 

PV c $17,325.5281  

PV m  $79,209.3663  

Total $96,534.8944  

As the bonds are issued below face value there is a discount:

100,000 - 96,535 = 3,465

the entry will recognize the cash procceds and the creation of a liaiblity

we will also use an auxiliar account for the discount on the bonds
